Friends,
With all the screaming, shouting, lies from the Media, I guess it's super hard now days to think that you are doing the right thing. And then, it's the way you are raised, most of the time, that gives a child what ever mindset he/ she has in making some important future choices and investments of their time, money, and sacrifice, with too many kids turning to DRUGS ! And then every few years some new 'designer drug' comes out and just sweeps across a region in the USA and snatches dozens of lives !
Now, everybody knows that poor old Tom has his share of challenges and problems.... lol... but yet so many folks who know me personally, only WISH they were in my shoes ! Because I just happen to have a descent pension and health benefits, but I worked so hard all my life that I SHOULD have SOMETHING to show for my crippled up old body... Ha!
The KJV Bible doesn't use the term, "Luck" --- that I have ever come across, but the book of Ecclesiastes does talk about:
ECCLESIASTES 9:11 KJV "I returned, and saw under the sun ...
https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Ecclesiastes-9-11
Ecclesiastes 9:11 KJV: ... Ecclesiastes King James Version (KJV) ... Wesley's Notes for Ecclesiastes 9:11. 9:11 'But time and chance happeneth to them all.'
I hope that you will take a moment to just look that scripture up, because it is not only beautiful, but so meaningful.
However, some folks take the dim view that, 'why should they even TRY to work hard and get ahead... because they think that everything in life is stacked against them from the start !! And that is just NOT THE CASE ! In fact, the same book of Eccl. written by wise old King Solomon also says that we SHOULD work hard and also be happy in our work, and also experience happiness in our youth.... and give praise to our Father --God, also called Jehovah, or Yahweh, or YHWH. Jesus is His only begotten Son, and our Lord and Savior, through which EVERYTHING was created... the Master's Hand. I hope I have not mixed you up... so far.
I remember a smart man once said, that the Bible was written for the "Middle of the Road" sort of man/ guy.... who is 'balanced' in his mind and heart. We want to have a hot fire burning in our hearts for the Lord, but not to be unbalanced in our attitudes regarding everything else in life. Some kids dream about being this or that, or getting filthy rich, powerful, famous, doctor, attorney or Indian Chief, what ever. God wants us to be happy, but He also knows that some will suffer, get injured, die, be poor, etc. We need to know the entire bible to understand that our life NOW is a 'mist' according to the book of James, and that we are here only temporarily, and that there is 'another world' besides this physical one that we know and see here now. So that should have some bearing on how we act, feel, think, and conduct ourselves as Christians. On the other hand there are other 'religions' who also feel strongly about their belief systems, such as Islam, the so-called religion of "Peace." But they condone chopping/ cutting off heads of those who do not believe the same as they do. They consider their, and all other women to be 2nd class citizens, almost like cattle or livestock, so they can beat or even kill them without fearing any punishment !! But what really gets me started is that the Muslim people believe that a good or righteous man of their Faith in Allah dies and goes to heaven or some paradise where he gets 72 virgins to wait on him and give him pleasure, forever. But I always wondered what a good, righteous woman gets in their after life ! It just doesn't add up, or make good sense to me.
As far as what will happen to the price of bananas and "Precious Metals" in the near future, we also have experts to please everyone.... lol. I just went out to lunch today to enjoy my favorite Mexican cuisine at Carlos' Cantina, and I enjoyed 40 hot peppers with my excellent meal ! It actually helps my digestion. After that I went to the grocery store and bought 6 cans of sliced Beets, and some fresh fruit, etc. I had a written list but still forgot to buy some Ginger Snap cookies to munch on when I decide I don't want to eat a big meal, but sort of 'fasted' yesterday to lose weight, etc.
The reason I am telling you all of this stuff, is because I believe in being balanced, and ready for most anything that might come up. Just look at the News on TV and how the weather has killed more people in Georgia from tornadoes and wet storms and flooding on both coasts right now ! So, I do believe in being as prepared that we can without spending every last cent of all those emergency things.
Just think now: What if the authorities tell you to get out of town NOW, any way you can, but your auto or truck is out of gas and you have no relatives to put you up in other cities or towns ?? You see, you are S.O.L. [surely out of luck]. Unfortunately, most Americans live for today --- or from paycheck to paycheck. You can thank Obama for some of that crap.... lol. So, now, most of us adults in the room know that change is hard and we older folks don't like change very much. There is a new Sheriff in town, actually D.C., and to cure our national disease, many of us are going to have to work much harder just to stay afloat. Joining the Army or Marines was not a picnic in the grass, either ! But we did it, and most of us were blessed so that we came home from a war. Well, you really never 'get out of the Army, but you are a Soldier all your life.' When I became a Christian, what I really did was: 'Change Armies' to now serve under a better General, and Commander in Chief ! So even though we must change again -- we have done it before, and we will continue following the Right Leader. Even if it means our death.
America is in such DEEP DARK DEBT right now, that if we can even survive, it will certainly be a miracle !! We may be asked to do some very hard lifting and sacrifice, but for those of us who have been supporting both the rich and the poor for a long time --- we will try our best to pull the plow. But we will NOT continue to carry the lazy, spoiled rotten 'Welfare Queens' and gang bangers and girls with 15 kids, each from a different father, and all the millions of ILLEGAL ALIENS that snuck over our border thinking that they will just do nothing but eat our bread and taxes !! And those pigs are really angry because they know that they will finally have to work and sacrifice, same as the working man and woman have always done !!! I hope that you understand this new fight, friends.
Have a nice day.

Dr. Doom Marc Faber: “Global Liquidity Will Move Into Precious Metals In The Next 3 – 6 Months”

Economist Marc Faber, who is known in many circles as Doctor Doom for his oft gloomy forecasts, says that stock markets are overvalued, but stops short of saying that a crash is imminent. Though valuations are high and sentiment is dangerously optimistic, Faber argues in a recent interview with Fox Business that there are huge money flows still making their way into U.S. equities.
And over the next three to six months Faber says much of that liquidity from foreign and domestic investors may start moving into precious metals and precious metals stocks:
And over the next three to six months Faber says much of that liquidity from foreign and domestic investors may start moving into precious metals and precious metals stocks:
[There won’t be a sell off] in the near future… but if you look at the valuation of stock they’re high. If you look at the valuation of the US dollar it is high… If you look at the money flows in the last few weeks a lot of money has flown into US equities, both from domestic investors and international investors… as a contrarian this is not a particular good sign.Full Interview:
However, there is a lot of liquidity in the world… the liquidity will move into precious metals and precious metals stocks… so I would be long gold shares, silver shares, platinum and the underlying physical…
I also think that sentiment is much too optimistic about stocks and far too pessimistic about bonds…
Faber may be on to something, as demand for gold via ETF’s is surging at levels not seen since the 2011 run up in precious metals prices, suggesting that for those on the sidelines now may be a good time to buy gold and related assets.
As the elite meet in Davos to discuss banning cash, investors around the world are flocking to safe havens. Nowhere has this been more visible than in China, where so much money moved into BitCoin that it broke through $1000 stopping just shy of all-time highs.
The sudden and precipitous rise of the digital currency is an indicator of what may happen with precious metals should they become the next go-to safe havens for panicked investors.
With the strength of the US dollar today and President Trump recently warning that a strong dollar is not good for trade, it is quite possible that a policy shift with the new administration could weaken the dollar, adding further upward pressure on the gold price going forward.
If Faber is right, there is a perfect storm brewing for gold and silver.
